Anyone else have weird little rules of thumb they apply to stuff? I was thinking about some of my own today & they seem funny because they''re so random, but they make sense to me ...
Here are a few jewelry related ones & some others just for fun
1) Never let the white part of your nail be wider than your diamond (makes diamond look smaller)
2) No settings that holds a centerstone up higher than double the centerstone''s own depth. (Too teetery, out of balance)
3) No dangles more than the stone''s length down from the ear. (Out of balance)
4) No dogs smaller than one''s own a**. (I broke this one though - for the love of a little fluff ball)
5) Rings on one finger per hand.
6) If your pendant is flipping when you talk -- it''s TOO TIGHT.
7) No "sets" -- looks unimaginative
No nail art.
Now this is just random silliness ... rules in my own head so please don''t think I''m saying any of this is "bad" for other folks. I''m just curious what people have ruled out for "themselves" -- or even things they thought they''d ruled out (like tiny dogs) but compromised on.
